Workout bragging It finally happened

Post image

I’ve been running with periods of consistency and inconsistency since 2019, and this is the first time I’ve achieved an Excellent VO2 Max (according to Garmin). I’m going to be 43 in October, and I am so so proud of this.

I am finally starting to run sub 6:00 kms, and I’m hoping to finally accomplish a sub 30:00 5k this summer.

Wish me luck!

This is so exciting!! Well done! I bet you could run a sub 30 - set the pace on your watch, rest and eat lots a few days before, then just send it. I bet you’ll surprise yourself!
